Chapter 128
Chapter 128
"I'm not obsessed with romance, how do you know that Chi Yu will dump me? Maybe I'm the one who's gotten bored and dumped him? Maybe I was just toying with him? It's not uncommon for girls to play with feelings when they're bored, is it?" Song Luokui said very calmly.
Song Luosheng suddenly had nothing to say. His sister didn't seem like the soft, obedient, gentle little sister he had in mind.
She actually spoke so lightly of just "playing" with feelings.
Song Luokui added, "Of course, those are just future possibilities. Maybe Chi Yu and I will stay together until we get married. Maybe we'll even have kids, and they'll call you 'Uncle', you know?"
Hearing her say that gave Song Luosheng a jolt. "Luokui, stop it, you're breaking your brother's heart."
Song Luosheng suddenly stood up. "I won't agree to it. Luokui, you just rest well."
Song Luosheng walked out.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw Aunt Gui peeking around nosily. When she saw him come out, she gave an embarrassed smile. "Young Master Luosheng, you can have your meal now. Where's the young lady?"
Song Luosheng: "Inside." He turned his head and said to the room, "Luokui, time for dinner."
Song Luokui also came out, giving Aunt Gui a smile. "Aunt Gui."
The two went downstairs one after the other and sat at the dining table in silence. Aunt Gui served the dishes, but neither of them spoke as they ate in silence.
Aunt Gui, watching them, grew increasingly anxious, not knowing what was wrong between the two siblings who used to be so affectionate, always chatting.
Ah, she didn't know what had happened.
That evening, when Song Moqian and Sheng Rong returned, Aunt Gui told them about the incident.
Song Moqian: "Don't worry about it, he's been so busy at the company without caring about his sister at all, and now he's finally upset about it."
Sheng Rong: "Luosheng is just a busy child. No matter, I'll go talk to him."
Song Moqian: "What's there to talk about? It's obviously Luosheng's fault."
Sheng Rong: "Oh, you. How could it be Luosheng's fault? It's Luokui keeping secrets that upset him. I'll go check on Luosheng."
Sheng Rong went upstairs and knocked on Song Luosheng's door.
Song Luosheng came to open it. "Mom?"
Sheng Rong entered. "Have you been very busy at the company lately? If there's too much work, distribute some to others. There's always too much work to do."
Song Luosheng: "I know."
Sheng Rong looked at him. "Aunt Gui said you and Luokui had a falling out? It wasn't right for Luokui to hide things from you, but she's grown up now and has her own secrets, so we should understand."
Song Luosheng: "Mom, I don't understand! Why him of all people?!"
Sheng Rong: "What's wrong with that Chi Yu boy? Isn't he quite a good lad?"She thought the Chi family boy seemed decent.
Song Luosheng: "I don't think so."
Sheng Rong: "I know you two don't get along, but putting that aside, that Chi Yu boy is actually quite a good lad and has indeed treated Luokui very well. But of course, it's all hypothetical for now – we'll have to see how it goes in the future.
"Your sister did say it's just dating for now. Life is long, and maybe they'll break up one day, who knows?"
Song Luosheng didn't respond, and Sheng Rong continued, "I know you care deeply for Luokui, and you know how much she values you as her brother – she even acted as an undercover agent for your sake. Don't you think getting angry at her like that hurts her heart?"
Song Luosheng: "Mom, I..."
Sheng Rong patted his shoulder. "Luosheng, think it over carefully. You're both grown up now. One day, you'll also get married. Luokui will have her own path in life. No matter what you two do, as long as it's not illegal, your father and I will support you. Think it over carefully."
With that, Sheng Rong left.
Song Luosheng sat in the chair, deep in thought.
For her part, Song Luokui also felt very regretful. She had wanted to have a nice heart-to-heart chat and act a little spoiled with her brother, but it turned out so differently instead.
At that moment, Chi Yu called her. "Hello?" Song Luokui's voice was very low.
Chi Yu's heart skipped a beat. "Did he scold you? Or hit you?" The thought of Song Luokui crying over this pained him.
Song Luokui felt much better. "No, my brother didn't hit me or scold me. We just had an argument." Song Luokui sighed. "My brother said he doesn't approve."
Chi Yu: "And what about you?"He only cared about her stance.
Song Luokui: "Of course I refused!"Her voice brightened."Dating is my own business. My brother's disapproval is his own issue. Although it does make me feel a little guilty for keeping it from him, so I guess I'll just have to give him more gifts to make it up later."
Song Luokui didn't believe her brother would stay angry at her for long. He was just upset in the heat of the moment.
Chi Yu felt very relieved that she didn't agree to break up.
Song Luokui thought about how her brother had hit Chi Yu, "How are your injuries? Sorry, my brother was too rash."
Chi Yu: "A bit painful."
Song Luokui quickly video-called him. "Show me right away. Did you put any medicine on it?"
The video came through quickly, and Song Luokui saw that Chi Yu's lip was swollen and purplish, with bruising on his face too.
Song Luokui: "Why didn't you dodge? Put some medicine on right away, I'll watch you do it."
Chi Yu: "Okay." He immediately went to find the first-aid kit and took out an iodine solution, using a mirror to treat himself while Song Luokui looked on.
Song Luokui: "Will it look like that tomorrow too? Will it affect you going to the office? Maybe you should take the day off?"
Chi Yu: "No problem. We can meet up tomorrow evening then."
Song Luokui sighed, "Let's cancel our plans for tomorrow evening. The goal was achieved anyway, even if the process was a bit... intense."
Chi Yu: "Okay."
Song Luokui: "Also, I probably can't come see you for a few days, or go to ChunWang Manor either. I'm afraid of what my brother might do, so I'll wait until he calms down before seeing you again."
Chi Yu: "Got it. Can we still video chat though?"
"Yes, secretly." Song Luokui covered her mouth cutely as she whispered.
Chi Yu smiled slightly, but it tugged at his wound, causing a pain. "Agh!"
Song Luokui: "Don't smile! Just rest up properly, okay? Let's end our call here for today."
"Okay, good night."
"Good night."
After hanging up, Song Luokui rubbed her face and went to take a shower.
At this point, she had no idea that news of the incident between her brother and Chi Yu had spread throughout the estate. Not only that, but the video of their fight at the ice cream shop had also been uploaded online.
Although the bodyguards made people delete the video at the time, there would always be a few that slipped through the net. And it was two handsome guys fighting over a beautiful woman, after all - people are gossips by nature. So it didn't take long for the video to spread and for people to start commenting on it.
Before long, someone recognized that the two men were the chairmen of Shan Yu Group and Songhua Technology.
"Even though fighting is wrong, I wish I were that gorgeous woman."
"+1"
"+2"
"The person above is hilarious, what values? You'd be happy if two men fought over you? I'd say she's probably just a promiscuous woman playing the field."
"The person above is trying to smear her again. I remember the last person who did that had their account suspended after being sued. Wonder how long this one will last."
"I just want to know why the two were fighting? Over a woman? Surely not? Don't they have plenty of women?"
"No, don't you guys recognize that woman? It's the one who appeared briefly when the Songhua chairman was being falsely accused last time. She's a total beauty, and I think she's related to the Songhua chairman."
"Was anyone there in person? What actually happened?"
